I created these pieces using Styrofoam that I reclaimed from a construction site in Collinsville. Styrofoam is used as the base for stucco work on commercial buildings. The end-cuts and broken pieces end up in the dumpster. Since Styrofoam doesn’t decompose I would rather reclaim these pieces and use them to create art that has permanent beauty instead of letting them end up permanently in a landfill.

Tyranny at the Door is a piece I created using a solid wood door I found curbside. The door at one time was a beautifully crafted barrier to keep the outside world at bay. As I lifted the door it simply fell into pieces, Mother Nature and a million little tyrants will sometimes show us how strong we really are.
These works can be seen at Gallery 101 in Collinsville at 101 E. Main Street.
